Artist of the week
The artist for this week is Judith Schaechter, a woman I saw and fell in LOVE with at the Renwick Gallery in Washington, D.C. this spring.
She makes freakishly beautiful stained glass works that she then lights from behind. It's hard to tell from her images, but she draws into the pieces of glass through etching, and then she layers them so the work is almost 3-D.
I love her choice of imagery, she deals with a lot of mythology, and the technical aspect of them is just mind blowing.
If you EVER get a chance to see these in person, do. The slides don't even do them an ounce of justice.
